11'he Philippine Constabulary was organized on August 8, 1901 and will be 32 years of age on August 8, next. Eight different chiefs have com­ manded the force, four of whom were Army offi­ cers detailed for service and the other four were officers brought up in and appointed from among the men trained to the Insuhr Police work.

February 1, 1933, is young in years and much wa­ ter may pass under the bridge before age suggestg to him the advisability of relinquishing the con­ trol of the organization to his successor. The Army officers who commanded the force as chiefs and those who served as assi:stant chiefs brought much to the Constabu~ary and gave it a standing and prestige militarily that it could not have attained otherwise. 'I'he influence, discipline and esprit de corp left by these great soldiers, most of whom served later as Majors-General over seas and in the continental United States, will endure be­ yond the life of any man in the force today. Not­ IWi thstanding the foregoing, they, as all army of­ ficers, had been stung by the superiority complex bee. There was lacking that comradeship which usually exis:t to a superlativ~ degree among all military men, and there Wf:l-S evidence of a social chasm so deep and so wide between the Army of­ ficer and the Constabulary officer that no consta­ ble dared attempt to cross it. Among the chiefs from the list of Constabulary officers who attained the highest rank the Corps has to offer, General Raf~el 'Crame was first to re­ ceive recognition. He looked as though he was made for the job, but he too was of a retiring nature, not inclined to ,appeal for popularity and made no attempt to be sociable. Comradeship was foreign • • to him. He was a good man and a good soldier, Br:ilgadier-General HERMAN HALL but during his regime the social chasms was still 1914-1917 deep and wide. Then to the 'Old Tiger' Chief Char­ les E.

Hie got close to the officers and men, many whom had at no time seen a chief of the organization in their vicinity. He ate, and drank, made com~ades and friends of them. His regime was the greatest of all. It can be stated without fear of contradiction that upon his retire­ ment he was the most popular chief of any who had preceded him. General Lucien R. Sweet, officer, gentleman, soldier and disciplinarian did not have an opport­ unity after his appointment as chief to show his IWf!lres. Ill health caused his retirement a few months after his appointment to the position in ~he United States on accrued leave and later his death. Had he lived to command the organization, which he loved so well, we are positive that his regime would have been just as efficient and honorable as his 31 years of service had been. The present Chief-General C. H. Bowers, came to the position after a preparatory course of 28 years.

Just about this time news of the probable succes-s of the Hawes-Cutting In­ dependence Bill was broadcast throughout the Ar­ chipelago. The Moros became jublalllt and expressed a desire for an early indpendence that they migh1l kill e.scape the electric chair and horrors of prison lif. The communist organization composed of pea­ sants federated i·aborers and tenants were not so jubilant at the prospects of an early independenc bue were just discontented with overlords- such as landlords artd land owners generally and desired an early change of conditions. If that change meant independence, then they wanted it, and '.at once. Through the suggestion of the Constabul(ary several meetings were held by local officials in the different barrios to hear complaints and ascertain the actual conditions and needs of the people ~nd to enlighten them c,,n the evils and ultimate dangers of Communism. The results obtained by these meetings were beyond all expectations and many members of the National Confederation of Peasants relinquished their membership in the organization. 1I!he prosecution of the leaders of "Kapisanang Brigadier-'General CHARLES E.

Looking back over it,s thirty-second year, the bureau finds that it has lost much during the past twelve months. To begin with, General N athorst, the retiring 'Chief, properly accounted for his ste­ wardship and relinquished command of the bureau; April 14, 1932. He found that "Lady Luck" had fa­ vored him. He turned over to the present chief the ba3ance of P5, 700,000 appropriated to run the bu­ reau for the year and which had not been spent 1Up to that time. From that balance forced savings of P'500,00 were required of his successor. For the year 1933, the Legislature reduced the amount ~appropriated for 1932 by 1P'1,000,000 and placed upon the ch1ef the responsibility of an additional forced savings of P500,000. This economical mea­ sure, so far, has necessitated the reduction of near­ ly 25% of the force. With a reduced appropriation ,and a reduced force, the malcontents in the ·Christian provinces began a rally on the ragged edges of the law. and · the lVI'Oros of Lanao •and Sulu became ugly and even transgressed the law, although they knE!w that the way of a transgressor is hard. It was necessary to further reduce the force by disbanding nine com­ panies in the peaceful provinces that vacanices in companies in Lanao and Sulu might be filled. To Brigadier-General LUCIEN R.
